I see so many tomato soup recipes online—some call for fresh tomatoes, others for canned. But if you ask me, nothing beats a fire-roasted fresh tomato soup made in a pizza oven. It’s smoky, pure, and clean in flavor—and so easy to make. Everything goes into one pan, gets roasted in the pizza oven, and in just 10 minutes, you have the perfect soup base. Blend until smooth, strain through a fine sieve, and serve in two cups with grilled cheese sticks. It’s the ultimate cozy recipe for a night in with your partner— even better as a Valentine’s Day appetizer.
Preheat your pizza oven to its maximum heat. No need to wait until it reaches full temperature—this is a roasting process for the soup. We’ll “broil” first, then mix, and broil again.
Add all the ingredients to a cast iron pan and toss to combine. Place the pan in the oven and immediately lower the temperature to medium. After 3–4 minutes, remove the pan, stir the ingredients, and return it to the oven. Cook for another 3–4 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes before blending.
Add all the ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve to remove any chunks or tomato skins for a silky-smooth soup. Correct seasoning if needed.
Make the grilled cheese by placing the two slices of cheese between the two slices of brioche bread. Heat a pan over medium-low and toast the sandwich, flipping every 2 minutes. Once it develops a golden color, add a small splash of water to the pan and immediately cover with a lid. This will create steam to ensure the cheese melts perfectly in the center.
Cut the grilled cheese into 4 sticks.
Heat the soup if needed, then pour it into two cups and drizzle olive oil on top. Add two grilled cheese sticks to each cup and serve.
YASSS!
